Description

SOLD

With almost 36ha of variety including a century-old home with far more character and charm than a modern home can offer. This old whare was often frequented by the late Frederick Hundertwasser as a guest of the current owner of almost 40 years. There is a lot of history here!

This historic home has some really nice features including stained glass windows, an open fireplace, a separate vintage firebox, french doors out to the Mediterranean-style courtyard, the 'farm-house' kitchen looks out over the garden and opens to access the rear balcony, the main bedroom also has access out to the rear balcony plus a cool mezzanine loft area. The time-served native timber is looking fantastic and gives the house a warm glow throughout the interior. This home could certainly benefit from some modern upgrades if that's your thing, it is also expected that this old girl will need some care once in a while due to her advancing years.

An orchard with a variety of fruit trees including a green-house and an olive grove, a useful half-round shed with a concrete floor, a trusted spring-fed water supply, ponds with natural water features, an authentic rail carriage sleepout, acres of bush and space to wander free, some beautiful native giants and an amazing array of exotic flora.

Beauty is great but where's the money? Here we have some money growing on trees in the way of valuable standing timber (totara, radiata pine, eucalyptus gum, Tasmanian blackwood). Also, subdivision potential with enough area of land to sell some lifestyle sections and still maintain your privacy. (subject to council consent).

The homestead is extremely private with access through a long tree-lined driveway. There is direct access from the tidal creek into the Kawakawa River that flows to Opua, catch a snapper for dinner in your own privacy. Why not head upstream to see if this version of utopia matches yours?
